Friend of Convoy of Hope, Bradley Pinion, has been named the San Francisco 49ers nominee for the 2017 Walter Payton Man of the Year Award. Along with the award, United Way Worldwide, the National Football League Foundation, and Nationwide are donating $50,000 to the charity of choice for each team’s nominee. Pinon has chosen Convoy of Hope as his recipient for the donation.
As part of the award celebration, each nominee is participating in a social media charity challenge. The nominee whose competition hashtag is used the most will receive an extra $25,000 for their charity. To help Pinion raise an extra $25,000 for Convoy of Hope, use the hashtag #WPMOYChallengePinion.
Pinion has been a great supporter of Convoy of Hope this year. He acted as an advocate for essential disaster relief work during the active 2017 Atlantic hurricane season. He also recently represented Convoy of Hope on his cleats in celebration of the My Cause, My Cleats weekend. Convoy is also excited to once again have Pinon help serve Bay Area Guests of Honor this week at the upcoming Community Event with the 49ers at Levi’s Stadium.
